Abstract

Black cotton soil that's one of the most important soil deposits in India becomes especially problematic due to its property of higher degree of swelling and shrinkage. These soils are used in subgrade of pavement and also in construction of structures. Hence so as to improve the houses of such soils many strategies are to be had like soil stabilization, soil replacement, moisture control, prewetting etc. In recent years, soil stabilization by the use of numerous minerals like quarry dust, saw dirt, copper dust and fly ash were most generally used. These strong wastes are every day increasing in India, which isn't environmental pleasant hence they ought to be recycled. Thus, a review is presented to make use of the ones wastes in soil stabilization. In this paper, the observe mainly focusses on stabilization of soil using strong waste. To recognize the performance of stabilized soil, its residences like Atterberg limits, compaction characteristics, swelling, shear strength, CBR value and other Index & Engineering properties have been discussed.
